be functional? I cannot boot with either.
I'll do an update later this day on an HP zd7000 notebook which
relies on ACPI and will report the behaviour.

Could this be similar to my problem where FC 3 kernels boot, but FC 4
ones do not?
The problem might be related to the differences between the way devices
are managed between FC3 and
FC4. Look into UDEV and other possibilities. I think the kernel is
missing some features that the FC4 kernel used to have compiled in.
ACPI is a different issue, HP laptops cannot boot without it for some
models. The model mentioned above and my HP ze4315us cannot boot without
ACPI being functional.
